Meanwhile, after a hectic year, Akshay is taking a break. After a year of being shut down due to the coronavirus pandemic, his film Bell Bottom was the first major release of the year. It was later followed by ‘Sooryavanshi’, which has a domestic box office total of little under 200 crore. However, ‘Atrangi Re’, his third picture of the year, received a wide release.

Currently, Akshay is working on a number of projects. He's now filming ‘Ram Setu’ and has ‘Prithviraj’, ‘Bachchan Panday’, ‘OMG 2’ – ‘Oh My God! 2’ and ‘Raksha Bandhan’ on the horizon.
